Government
Since being listed as endangered under CITES Appendix I, 16 Government protected nature reserves have been created to house the Proboscis Monkey which is also protected by law throughout those areas (Meijaard and Nijman 2000). Furthermore Logging and agricultural expansion without permission from local authorities are prohibited within the Reserves.

Non Governmental Organisations (NGO)
There has been a strong conservation presence in the Lower Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary over the years. There is a growing number of local and international non-governmental organizations and research stations which are organizing and implementing eco-tourism projects with the agenda of reforesting previously destroyed areas to allow greater connectivity between forest fragments. While preventing the further intrusion of oil palm plantations into nearby habitats. Already, these schemes appear to be generating some success as proboscis Monkey populations are observed to be stabilising over time. (Stark DJ et al. , 2012)
